That's right...just like the thread title says...
Randomly my 40 will shut down in a left hand turn. It's like I turned the key off. No stumble, no choking, just dies. Sometimes, I can turn the steering wheel straight, mash down on the gas and get her to start up again, but usually have to pull over crank, and crank because it floods out. Plume of black smoke, raw gas smell...
Yesterday, I was driving, and happened quite a bit, so thought I would post up and see if anyone had insight where to look. I think electrical...I can jiggle the key and she still runs, so not quite sure it's the ignition switch. Wires appear to be in good shape, and not grounding out on anything. There is a random red wire with a black stripe hanging but appears to be for the "dome light" if there ever was one. Grounds have been moved to a more solid connection, to the clutch slave mount, and to the tub from the frame. Ground also cleaned and reseated from the battery to the frame
If I'm sitting still, and turn the steering wheel left, and right it runs fine.
Anyway, hoping I can get some direction from some of you all.
Thanks
